Nick Clegg: 'New roads will rebalance economy'

The Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg has told the BBC that plans to build new roads will be important in rebalancing the economy.

A tunnel on a busy route at Stonehenge is among dozens of new road plans to be announced by the government, as part of a £15bn "roads revolution" for England.

The money - initially announced in 2013 - will involve 100 road improvement schemes and add 1,300 new miles of extra lanes to motorways and A roads.
